... and I can't find any other way to make the multiple lines of text in my NLabel be left justified, instead of centered. What am I missing here?

Thanks!

Hi Lee,

You need set the TextStyle.StringFormatStyle.HorzAlign property:

   NLabel label = new NLabel("Multiline \r\nlabel");
   label.TextStyle.StringFormatStyle.HorzAlign = Nevron.HorzAlign.Left;
   label.BoundsMode = BoundsMode.None;
   nChartControl1.Document.RootPanel.ChildPanels.Add(label);

That looks easy, but it doesn't seem to work. Here's the block of code in question... and I've attached a screenshot of the result... thanks in advance... Lee

Dim sLegend As NLabel = Nothing
If mSLegendLayout <> eLegendLayout.None AndAlso Not (TypeOf chart Is NPieChart) Then
sLegend = chartCtrl.Labels.AddHeader("blah blah blah")
sLegend.ContentAlignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleLeft
'sLegend.TextStyle.horizontalalign = VisualStyles.HorizontalAlign.Left
If mSLegendLayout = eLegendLayout.Right Then
sLegend.Margins = New NMarginsL(10, 0, 0, 0)
sLegend.FitAlignment = ContentAlignment.TopLeft
sLegend.Dock = DockStyle.Right
Else
sLegend.Margins = New NMarginsL(0, 10, 0, 10)
sLegend.FitAlignment = ContentAlignment.BottomCenter
sLegend.Dock = DockStyle.Bottom
sLegend.TextStyle.StringFormatStyle.HorzAlign = Nevron.HorzAlign.Left
sLegend.BoundsMode = BoundsMode.None
End If

End If

Hi Lee,

You use docking which implies that the content alignment is not actually applied. In this case you only need to use FitAlignment - check out the following code snippet:

 Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
  Dim label As NLabel = Nothing
  Dim right As Boolean

  right = False

  label = NChartControl1.Labels.AddHeader("blah blah blah")

  If right Then
   label.Margins = New NMarginsL(0, 0, 10, 0)
   label.FitAlignment = ContentAlignment.TopRight
   label.Dock = DockStyle.Top
  Else
   label.Margins = New NMarginsL(10, 0, 0, 0)
   label.FitAlignment = ContentAlignment.TopLeft
   label.Dock = DockStyle.Top
  End If
 End Sub

which produces correct results.
